One Pager October, 2022

• Investors seeking to invest in a bond fund positioned to benefit from volatility in the debt markets
• Investors seeking to do asset allocation across various asset classes
• Ideal for investors with moderate to high risk profile
Mahindra Manulife Dynamic Bond Yojana endeavours to take advantage of interest rate movements. With the flexibility to counter a dynamic environment, the Scheme aims to generate regular returns and capital appreciation through active management of portfolio in line with the evolving interest rate scenario.
• The YTM of the portfolio is around 7.23%.
• The Modified Duration of the portfolio (MD) increased to around 3.38 years
• The Portfolio largely derives it duration from Gilts as we believe that the AAA credit spreads may expand as we move ahead
Under normal circumstances the asset allocation pattern will be:

The domestic debt market continued to witness a schism in the yield curve. The money market yields moved up by close to 40-50 basis points (bps) while the benchmark 10 years Gilt rates remained largely stable and moved up by around 5 bps. A tight systemic liquidity coupled with supply from the banking segment in issuing Certificate of Deposits (CDs) to fund the strong credit growth led to a sharp rise in the short-term rates. The credit yields curve for AAA rated issuers has largely become flat now with the 1, 3 and 10 years, rates largely the same now.

As minutes of the MPC meeting held on September 30th were put out for in the public domain, we saw two external members opining for a wait and watch policy to see the lag effects on the economy of the monetary policy measures.

The US rates continued its upward trend and the yield curve from the 3 months treasury to the 10 years treasury flattened marking potential recessionary economic growth in the near future. The home prices in the US have started stagnating /marginally falling and this trend would be actively monitored. The US Fed meets in the first week of November and would be an interesting watch.
